I picked up my copy of Cornovia at the Eden Project!

Also must recommend The Romance of the Stones (which I picked up in WHSmiths in Truro) by Robin Payne (illustrated by Rosemarie Lewsey) - covers, allegedly, every megalith in Cornwall, existing or perished. There are 2 editions - one is huge and about £50 depending on where you get it, the other is just the gazeteer, and I got mine for £10. A quick search got me this online reference to the book: http://www.cw.cx/nder/books/rots.htm

Carn Brea (read up on the place before visiting - numerous stones and archaeology features there), Wendron, Burras Menhir, Mabe Church Menhir. Many reports by me, and others are here:

Enjoy yourself!

So much to see in Cornwall!
